Dual connectivity (DC) has been emphasized in both LTE and 5G networks to utilize a
secondary evolved NodeB (SeNB) connected to the master evolved NodeB (MeNB) that can …

Rateless codes have been found to be particularly attractive for decode and forward based
relaying strategy in delay tolerant multihop networks. The latency performance of such …

Dual Connectivity (DC) is a technique proposed to address the problem of increased
handovers in heterogeneous networks. In DC, a foreground User Equipment (UE) with …

In this paper, we investigate the optimal design of cooperative network-coded strategies for
a three-node wireless network with time-varying half-duplex erasure channels. To this end …

When a message is forwarded through a network, a node will have multiple opportunities to
reliably receive the message and cooperate in transmission. However, the transmit power of …

Multi-Connectivity (MC) is a key technology in the deployment of the upcoming Fifth
Generation (5G). MC means that one user can connect to a Master Evolved NodeB (MeNB) …

Abstract The Dual Connectivity (DC) technology has gained a lot of momentum in the LTE
Release 12 as a means to enhance the per-user throughput and provide mobility …

The 3GPP (Rel. 12 and Rel. 16) introduces and explores the dual connectivity (DC). It is one
of the most important future technologies adopted by 5G. It enhances the throughput and …

An opportunistic network coding (NC) scheme is proposed for the multi-relay-aided single-
source single-destination network with transmission deadline. With the help of matrix …

Rateless code properties ideally suit multi-node transmissions with decode-and-forward
based relaying strategy, and have been extensively employed in delay tolerant networks …
